American Newspapers in the Columbia University Libraries
This checklist of U.S. newspapers from 1704 to the present, is arranged by state and city of publication.
It includes currently received paper issues, newspapers in microform, and newspapers available online through our subscriptions to several news databases. This list does not include our underground newspaper collection, which is listed in CLIO.
